Flip Scrapbooking Easter Page

I have been loving all the Sizzix Flip It cards that have been coming out lately.  The idea that you can make such an interactive card was interesting to me.  Being the scrapbooker that I am, I couldn't help but wonder if you could have the same effect on a scrapbooking page.  It was a lot of fun and it works!

I love this Heidi Swapp No Limits line of papers.  The colors of deep orange and the dark blues was wonderful.  I used a No Limits Memory File Folder to create the flip in the middle and to create a wonderful background for the rest of my photos.  Being a file folder it was just the right weight of paper to hold the flip part of this page.  I also used the Heidi Swapp stamps, pennant, and banners.  The letter stickers are by Making Memories.  The stars are punched from a Starbucks cup insulator.  The washi tape is made by SMASH. 
Open up the folder and pull the tab that says "open and pull" and the circle in the middle flips showing you the photos of my kids making faces.
Then, if you open up the file folder I have placed pictures on the inside as well.  
Tons of fun.  I really enjoyed creating this page.

Craft Warehouse Guest Designer California Mini Album

I am thrilled to design for Craft Warehouse!  I love Craft Warehouse.  They not only sell crafting products but they sell inspiration that sparks my creativity.  Just walking into their store is a wonderful experience for me.
I am excited to show you my Craft Warehouse inspired mini book today.  This project was a ton of fun.  I had a blast spraying and staining Heidi Swapp Color Magic papers and Banner Delights with all sorts of Studio Calico Mister Huey's Sprays and Tim Holtz Distress Stains.  There is nothing like being able to create your project not only in design but being able to style and dye your own paper to go with it.  I also used the Canvas Corp 6x6 Stitched Book.  It's thick canvas pages and the design of the book was so much fun to alter and play with.  I enjoyed this project from start to finish.
